Blog #1 revisited!

I have to say that this last week was probably the most beneficial to me because we often worked with the lesson to learn it. I am definitely a learner who does better by putting it into practice. The AAAWWUBBIS lesson was something I never really thought about before. These are lessons you may know internally without really thinking about the actual rules. It made your realize how those subordinate clauses need a period after them and how AAAWWUBBIS makes that first half only a clause and it is no longer a complete sentence. I really enjoyed the lesson and I love keeping the workshop checklist written in a certain place so that one day I may use the lessons from it in my own classroom.
I was so thankful when the deadline was pushed back for the scrapbook because I often found sentences or commas I thought were incorrect but sometimes it would turn out that they weren’t really incorrect but rather it was a newspaper related preference. I am still really frustrated with finding examples because I suppose I do not have very much confidence that it is actually incorrect. I think looking at the example scrapbooks and asking questions really helped in class on Wednesday. I do have more ideas of what to look for now, but I still worry whether I am judging the mistake correctly. Overall, I really enjoyed class this week because I learned a lot about applying the lessons to my own writing and finding examples and common mistakes in others writing.

Being someone who learns from doing, using the blogs to pick out examples really helped me [Participle]. The AAAWWUBBIS lesson was something I never really thought about before.

I really enjoyed the lesson, and I love keeping the workshop checklist written in a certain place so that one day I may use the lessons from it in my own classroom. The checklist, which puts grammatical rules into simple terms, is a way to refer back to everything we have learned this semester [Appostive].
